Energy
We provide the civil and site engineering behind renewable generation and energy storage: site identification, surveys, hydrology, layouts, foundations, roads and drains. Our hydro and pumped storage studies total about 5 GW.
Renewable Energy: Solar
We handle the civil scope of solar plants, from site survey to the structures that hold the modules. Layouts, roads, drains and foundations are designed for the plant's capacity and the site's soil and drainage.
- Investigations, pre-feasibility reports and DPRs
- Pre-feasibility reports for floating solar projects
- Site surveys and layout optimisation for maximum generation
- Module mounting structure design, ground-mounted and rooftop
- Internal and connecting roads, drains and control rooms
- Geotechnical investigations and pile load tests
- Commissioning support
Renewable Energy: Wind
Wind farms depend on sound foundations, access that can take heavy turbine components and a clear route to the grid. We take projects from investigation studies and PFRs to DPRs with forest clearances.
- Investigation studies and pre-feasibility reports
- DPRs with forest clearances
- Planning of power evacuation lines
- Site surveys and micro-siting support
- Access roads and crane pads
- Geotechnical investigations for turbine foundations
Renewable Energy: Hydro
Hydro projects are shaped by terrain, so accurate surveys come first. We establish head and capacity, align the water conductor system and map the area that will be inundated.
- Investigations, pre-feasibility reports and DPRs
- GIS-based reconnaissance and site identification
- Topographic surveys to establish head and generation capacity
- Alignment of diversion works, tunnels, surge tanks, penstocks, power house and tail race
- Inundation mapping and land acquisition schedules
- Mini and small hydro projects
Energy Storage
Storage is the backbone of a renewable grid. We identify and assess pumped storage sites and provide site development and civil engineering for battery and thermal storage facilities.
- Pumped storage projects (PSP): site identification, pre-feasibility and DPR surveys
- Battery energy storage systems (BESS): site development, foundations and civil works
- Thermal energy storage systems (TESS): site and civil engineering
Power Transmission
High-tension lines cross long and varied terrain. We plan routes and evacuation, investigate tower locations, and model the line in power line CAD software to spot towers and design conductor sag.
- Route planning, survey and alignment of new and existing HT lines
- Power evacuation planning
- Geotechnical studies for tower foundations
- Line planning and design in power line CAD software
- Soil resistivity tests
- Tower spotting and sag design
